Linyue Dong station
station of Foshan Metro
Linyue Dong / Linyuedong station (simplified Chinese: 林岳东站; traditional Chinese: 林岳東站; pinyin: Línyuè Dōng Zhàn; Cantonese Yale: Làhmgohk Dōng Jaahm) is an underground station on Line 2 of Foshan Metro and an elevated station on Nanhai Tram Line 1, located in Foshan's Nanhai District. Line 2 opened on 28 December 2021, whilst Nanhai Tram Line 1 opened on 29 November 2022. It is the southeastern terminus of Nanhai Tram Line 1.
At present, the Line 2 and Nanhai Tram Line 1 stations are two independent stations, about 500m apart. In addition, the adjacent Linyue Xi Station has a transfer between Line 2 and Nanhai Tram Line 1, so the current operator does not regard Linyue Dong Station as a transfer station. Linyue Dong Station of the two lines on the online network map is marked as two different stations, and the English station names of the two stations are also spelled differently.
Station layout (Line 2)
The Line 2 station has an underground island platform on the south side of Linyue Avenue. West of the station are connecting lines to Linyue Depot, and the station also has reserved partial structures and part of the platform for Line 11.
Entrances/exits
There are 2 points of entry/exit for Line 2. Both exits are equipped with ramps.

Why this record matters
The phrase “station of Foshan Metro” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Maps, plans, fabric surveys and administrative records can establish how the site’s name, extent and function changed over time. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 14, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q110273055. Authority coordinates are 22.997, 113.245. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2021 and 2022.
Modern boundaries and familiar names can conceal earlier jurisdictions or structures that do not align with the present site. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
